4.0 out of 5 stars Clear and useful text, 21 July 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Research for Writers (Writing Handbooks) (Paperback)
This is a clear and very helpful book, and I can recommend it to any writer. It sweeps away the fear and confusion lurking around that dreaded word, "research"! Definitely one for the reference shelf.

1.0 out of 5 stars This is for England, Not for the United States, 7 Jan 2012
By kindlermye - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Research for Writers (Writing Handbooks) (Paperback)
Initially, I was excited to find this book. But when it arrived, I was very disappointed. If I lived in England, it would be amazing, and if I am researching something that would include British references, then this is your book. But I wanted this information for the United States. Nowhere is it mentioned that this is a British book.
